Hi, i'm new here, and i had a quick question. I found a pattern i really like, but the yarn it calls for is SUPER expensive. Could anyone tell me of a suggested alternative i could use for this??? the two yarns they give are

Noro Kochoran
Trendsetter Voila

Is there anything i can get that's like this at Joann's? I have a coupon there right now. Thanks for any help!! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

http://www2.datasync.com/orion/knitcomp.htm this is a downloadable program that all you have to do is put in the gauge of the yarn that you want to use. This is a great tool to have.

Thanks, that helps. But as far as texture and look go, could anyone tell me what brand/style is similar in this area to the two kinds listed above?

Welcome to the forum. I wish I could help, but I'm a touchie feelie gal, I usually only buy yarn that I have fondeled freely at the store before I buy it online. Usually if I touch it and see it up close, its easier to compare.. for me that is.

Ohhh thanks for the great Freeware site, Eva.
